Meeting prep in 60 seconds
Before each call, briefs you on the person, the company and your last thread.
15 minutes before each external meeting on my calendar, send me a brief: - Who: name, role, company, and one line on their background. - Company: what they do, size, and any news from the last 30 days. - History: a summary of my last email thread and notes with them, plus anything I promised. - Goal: based on the invite and our history, what I probably want out of this call. Keep it to what fits on a phone screen. Skip internal meetings.
